yea, the first one was pretty damn bad.

 

I thought it was a lot of fun. Far from the quality of the LoTR trilogy, but it was funny, the acting was good, the visuals were nice, and apparently it followed the book nicely.

 

You have to remember that The Hobbit is essentially a child's book, so the movie was bound to be lighter than the trilogy.

it didn't follow the book at all... when you take a 250ish page book and stretch it into 3 movies you gotta add filler.  the first movie was a solid 40% filler... (opposite problem of the last three movies.)

 

 

The whole thing just feels like a moneygrab to me.  Nothing horrible about it, just thoroughly mediocre... 

 

though honestly, I am biased and a bit uninformed, The hobbit is my favorite of the books... I fell asleep during the last quarter and didn't even bother to go back to watch it before I returned it.

I understand. I've never actually read it, so I've got nothing to base it on.

      Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"

      I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
